  20. What’s new??

  21. Ozone with blood Functional evaluation of complete sciatic, peroneal, and posterior tibial nerve lesions in the rat.Bain JR, Mackinnon SE, Hunter DAPlast Reconstr Surg. 1989 Jan; 83(1):129-38. • Plasma buffer system(antioxidants and polyunsaturated fatty acids)-> H2O2 • Ozone breaks down to ROS • ROS are neutralized when mixed with plasma within 30sec- 1min

  22. Bocci V. Ozone-A New Medical Drug. Dordrecht: Springer; 2005 • ozone concentration is less than 80 μg/ml, the buffer system and antioxidant system in blood and red blood cells can resist the damage to tissues and cell by ozone, thus fulfilling ozone treatment • The joint antioxidant system can become activated and provide a long lasting antioxidant response.

  23. Med Gas Res. 2011; 1: 29.Published online 2011 December 20. doi:  10.1186/2045-9912-1-29PMCID: PMC3298518Mechanisms of Action Involved in Ozone Therapy: Is healing induced via a mild oxidative stress?Masaru Sagai • Severe oxidative stress activates nuclear transcriptional factor kappa B (NFκB), -> inflammatory response and tissue injury via the production of COX2, PGE2, and cytokines • “moderate oxidative stress activates another nuclear transcriptional factor, nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). Nrf2 then induces the transcription of antioxidant response elements (ARE). Transcription of ARE results in the production of numerous antioxidant enzymes, such as SOD, GPx, glutathione-s-transferase(GSTr), catalase (CAT), heme-oxygenase-1 (HO-1), NADPH-quinone-oxidoreductase (NQO-1), phase II enzymes of drug metabolism and heat shock proteins (HSP)”

  24. -Rat OA injected with ozone injection 3/ week for 3 weeks compared with MIA Rats killed 40 days, articular cartilage and surrounding tissues were studied histologically. No signs of histologic changes seen Is medical ozone safe?

  25. Ozone safety study IntervNeuroradiol. 2011 September; 17(3): 281–285.Published online 2011 October 17.PMCID: PMC3396043EffectsofOzone on Sciatic Nerve in RatQ. Lin, H. Chen et al. Y • Our initial study suggests that ozone concentrations from • 10 μg/ml to 80 μg/ml injected around rat’s peripheral nerve will not cause serious sequelae or serious damage to the structure and function of peripheral nerve.

  26. Ozone on pain • Analgesic- oxidation of pain mediators- published: IM ozone in lumbar and c spine having pain reduction lasting 2 yrs. • Anti-inflammatory-oxidize arachidonic acid-prostaglandins, IL-1, IL-2, IL-8 • Improves microcirculation- improve oxygen to tissue for healing, hypoxic pain response

  27. RevEspCirOrtopTraumatol. 2013 Aug 4. pii: S1888-4415(13)00097-0. doi: 10.1016/j.recot.2013.06.003. • paravertebral and intra-abdominal abscess due to oxygen-ozone therapy for lower back pain. • Complications secondary to oxygen-ozone therapy are rare, but they have been described in medical literature. There are only two cases of infectious complications after oxygen-ozone therapy

  28. L5-S1 achromobacterXylosoxidans infection secondary to 02-03 therapy for the treatment of lumbosacral disc herniation: A case report and review of the literature2013 • AX opportunistic pathogen aquatic, rare cause of osteomyelitis, 1st reported case of discitis from AX • 29 yo post 02-03 developed chronic osteomyelitis- septic discitis (AX)-> getting a spine fusion • 3 reported spine infection from 02-02 intradiscal

  29. An observational retrospective study to compare 02-03 and/or global postural re-education in complicated chronic low back pain. Apuzzo et al, funcneurol 2014 mar 5:1-9 • Disc herniation • Intramuscular o2,03 • Global posture re education • Combo of both showed the best long term, yrs improvement

Epub 2013 Jul 31 • Ozone oxidative postconditioning ameliorates joint damage and decreases pro-inflammatory cytokine levels and oxidative stress in PG/PS-induced arthritis in rats. • reduced TNF-α concentrations as well as TNF-α and IL-1β mRNA levels

  31. Effects of ozone applied by spinal endoscopy in patients with chronic pain related to failed back surgery syndrome: a pilot study. • Pts with persistent chronic pain (more than six months) in the lumbar region and in the lower limbs related to failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) • Overall, the patients had 43.7% reduction of lumbar pain, 60.9% reduction in leg pain in six months followed by 44.0% of improvement in ODI.

  32. Effects of laser and 03 on bone healing in the calvarial defects • Kazancioglu et al 2013 • Low level laser and 03 improved bone healing, 03 improved more at 1 month compared to control

  33. The effects of N-acteylcysteine and 03 on oxidative stess/ inflammation in tylenol induced nephrotoxic model • NAC and OT prevented renal injury in rats, reduced inflammation, improve renal damage anti oxidant.

  34. The effect of IA of different concentration of 03 on TNF-, TNF-r1, tnf-r2 in rat RA chen et Rheumatolint may 2013 • Conclusion intra articular injection of 03 at 40ug/m can effectively suppress the joint swelling from RA, down regulating TNF-a, TNF-r2 and up regulating tnt-r1 in the joint.

  35. On going research • Intraarticular O3 therapy for pain control in osteoarthritis of the knee: Ozone is being currently tested for its effectiveness in relieving the pain in patients suffering from osteoarthritis of the knee. The current status of the study is phase 2 which is sponsored by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and the study being conducted by NCT00832312.

  36. Putting it together • Combing HA+ PRP+ ozone in joints? • Mixing ozone with stem cell?? • Traditional prolotherapy + ozone vsprolozone?? • Other possible ideas testosterone prolotherapy?? • Exciting times ahead in Regenerative Medicine
